1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

A substantial proportion of patients with non-metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) experience disease progression and death despite treatment. However, no tool currently exists to discriminate those at higher risk of death. To identify high-risk TNBC, we conducted a retrospective analysis of 749 patients from two independent cohorts. We built a prediction model that leverages breast magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) features to predict risk groups based on a 50-gene Transcriptomics Signature (TS). The TS distinguished patients with high-risk for death in multivariate survival analysis (Transcriptomic cohort: [HR] = 13.6, 95% confidence interval [CI] = 1.56-1, p = 0.02; SCAN-B cohort: HR = 1.45, CI 1.04-2.03, p = 0.02). The model identified a 20-feature radiomic signature derived from breast MRI that predicted the TS-based risk groups. This imaging-based classifier was applied to a validation cohort (log rank p = 0.013, accuracy 0.72, AUC 0.71, F1 0.74, precision 0.67, and recall 0.82), detecting a 25% absolute survival difference between high- and low-risk groups after 5 years.
